[Q] CWM Recovery Upgrade-Downgrade

hi all,
i can flash many ROM's and i can root , i am not a noob anymore XD.
But the last time i flashed a recovery was 5 months ago... so i want to upgrade to some newer versions:
My CURRENT CWM = 5.0.2.6
I want to flash CWM 5.0.2.7 OR CWM 6.1.0.2 .
Now my question's are:
-When i upgrade, will i still be able to restore my backups made with 5.0.2.6 ?
-When the installation fails and i can't get into CWM. How do i need to flash my old one or another recovery ? ( i think odin ??? but how ? )
Thank you , for the one that answers

I succesesfully updated to 6.0.1.4 test 2 and yes you still can use youre back up's.
Just go into recovery and install te zip reboot and youre done

Can't get twrp recovery to work

Hey guys, I'm having a little problem getting TWRP recovery working on my DINC2. I'm HTC DEV unlocked with S-ON and rooted. Currently I'm running Miui .30 ROM. I had flashed CWM recovery during the initial rooting operation and now that's the only thing that I can get working. If I go into goo manager and download the recovery, it seems to go OK, but still comes up in CWM recovery 5.02. Any ideas on what I'm doing wrong or something else to try?
Thanks in advance,
Eric

Someone may have a better answer than me, but I think your solution may be flashing the recovery image. They can be found at

And you will probably flash it with fastboot, not CWM. Look in the twrp thread to see if it gives more info before doing anything.

That was the ticket! fastboot flashed the recovery zip file and all is well. Now to figure out the S-OFF stuff.
Thanks again!

You can't flash roms using the stock recovery, only custom recoveries allow it... you'll need to install a custom recovery to install any custom roms

Was just checking out mobile odin... that won't work huh?

Not for flashing custom roms.... that's inky for .tar not .zip files... if you want a custom Rom you will have to install a custom recovery, no way around it

Sounds good. U suggest a certain one?

Either one is fine, but imo, twrp is much nice and the recent update has made it even better... you can download goo manager and install it from there.. just download goo manager from play store and hit the menu button and choose install open script recovery.. then boot straight into recovery and install the Rom of your choice... ( I say boot straight into recovery because I don't know how you rooted your phone and Samsung has a script that reinstalls the stock recovery when you reboot, so make sure you have a rim downloaded and ready to go before installing the recovery)

Nice! Thanks so much for ur help!

the problem is " CWM is not working after first flashing"
can you give me the link of latest flashable CWM for galaxy Ace 2, please
thanks before

The CWM you flashed is a temporary one.
When you restart the phone into recovery, it goes into the original Samsung recovery, right? If so, then just re-flash the CWM. You'll need to do this every time to go into CWM.

yeah i'm know that, but when im enter CWM not loaded, what version do you use ? give me please

I use the one from here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2141395
(that thread says version 6.0.2.8, but when I run it it says 6.0.4.5)
I do not understand what you mean by "when im enter CWM not loaded". You need to flash the zip every time you want to run CWM, like you did the first time - somebody should correct me if I'm wrong.

okay i'll try it later
thanks for try to help , problem is when im get in to samsung recovery and flash temporary CWM recovery, it won't loaded, just black screen and then my phone restart.

what ROM do you use ?
when I was in stock MF1 I installed 6.0.2.8 (Shaaan thread, TY BTW) and it was temporary.
Then I flashed CM10.2 which installed me a new version of CWM (6.0.4.6) which is now persistent.
Can you develop a little bit more about your software configuration please ? ROM ? kernel ?

backup
flash stock via odin
flash cm10.1/gapps
try again see if recovery is there :/

i know this solution but i can't do the same thing every time i loose cwm because it worked before. Thats why i asked if it is possible to flash only cwm

well i took that file from freegee folder, maybe you must flash this file first

Download CWM OR TWRP without any hassle
Just download freegee(root) from Google play store and once installed and opened ....let it download the necessary....then just click on cwm or twrp as per ur wish ......u might then feel as if the app has frozen....but it is the process of downloading...... And once finished it will show flash successful ....

Works with 4.4.2?
I used the FreeGee app on stock 4.4.2 V20c earlier, but it bricked my device. Why is that? How do I install a recovery on 4.4.2?

i have a question on flashing the cwm recovery image, i had to go back to stock as i was soft bricked - i now need to install a recovery and i am sure that when i did this a few weeks ago on my g pro i used flashify and flashed the cwm recovery image through this app and everything works ed well, now i am trying to do it and it flashes the file but wont go into recovery - it says fastboot mode started but never goes into recovery, i also tried rom toolbox to flash it and not having any luck - anyone have a way to do this ?

I would like to install a CWM touch variant, is there a way to get it done with KK stock rom?
I know it needs to be "lokified", but I have no clue how to do this.
Is there any tutorial to do this?

Philz touch cwm is a good one, you can find here on xda, or via Google search. However, my personal experience with cwm touch variant on e980 is that it causes the recovery bootloop (where you just keeps on going back to the recovery screen). Version 6.0.47 is stable , and will not cause the boot loop say when you try to open the recovery by using the up volume + power buttons. This seem to be the issue too with the cwm provided by cm update in the developer's option. Read the postings in the Philz's thread if you want to know more about the recovery loop and the touch cwm.

I get wrong date and time whene i make a backup. I have a E986. How can i fix this?
